About this site
Poseidon's Retreat lies along the coast of Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian Islands off western Greece, in an area of steep limestone shoreline and clear coastal water. Divers here have reported a mix of Mediterranean species including dusky spinefoot, European parrotfish, Mediterranean damselfish, and narrow-banded Spanish mackerel, along with ornate wrasse and smaller finds like nimble spray crabs, Saint Piran's hermit crabs, and warty crabs. The site is likely reached by boat from one of the island's coastal towns.
